It is 40 acres and we have MANY MANY free roaming animals, milking goats, ducks, chickens, cows, 3 BIG dogs.

This Rustic country house is also available for hire/rent, there is hot water via a woodfire (takes up to 5 hours to heat up water $50 per wheelbarrow load of wood) with Big triangle bath and a shower for use if you book the house, (3 single beds and a few new double bed air mattresses are available for your less rugged campers who want to come but need that extra comfort or to be close to a toilet at $40 per person per night.) You are welcome to come camping anytime with a range of needs catered to. Sorry no wheelchair ramps, a single step into the house and one step into the toilet too.
Pick whatever spot you like to camp upon, by the river, the rocky island in the river, in the bush, just on the paddock grass anywhere.

Stringybark is a quiet 80 hectare rural property in the North East of Tasmania, featuring bush, native grassland and 4 beautiful lakes. It's the perfect place to kick back and relax, enjoy the views, the abundant wildlife and refreshing swims in the lakes on the property.
If you feel like going for a wander, you can spend hours exploring the bush and native grasslands on the property and if you're keen on climbing the hill you get rewarded with amazing views over the Great Western Tiers. Why not take your mountain bike up there and enjoy the downhill ride afterwards? Sunsets are spectacular at Stringybark and the skies phenomenal during clear nights.
Although it feels like the end of the world, surrounded by bush and wildlife, we're only 30 minutes drive from Launceston CBD, Ben Lomond National Park and Josef Chromy's winery and only a 20 minute drive from Launceston Airport, making it a perfect base to explore Launceston and surrounds.
You need to be fully self contained and there are no amenities. But there is a beautiful lake with jetty to swim in.
We live on the property, just a stone's throw from the camp site, so if you ever need anything, just shout out.
Dogs are permitted, however strictly on lead only to protect the wildlife and our sheep. If your dog gets very excited around wildlife or sheep, this may not be a suitable stay, since they might come right up to your camp.
Please note, that Stringybark is a working property. While we'll always respect your privacy and keep noise levels to a minimum, please be aware that we do work on the land and that tools, building material and other rural property stuff can be present at any time (never on the campsite though).
Please ALWAYS supervise children and pets, particularly in the following areas:
-bush and grass areas where snakes can be present most of the year
-around the shed where we store farm materials
-around our lakes which are not fenced in
We're so excited to be sharing our piece of paradise with campers from near and far and from all walks of life :)

THIS IS A WORKING FARM WITH MANY FREE ROAMING ANIMALS!
Check in after 9am you get a whole day BEFORE you camp for the night and check out by 3pm this way you get another day here and plenty of daylight to get to your next place
This place has river flats surrounded by wilderness and is the first private property on the river, so therefor the LAST property at the end of the road before the road goes into Forestry tracks. Many would consider this place to be very remote.....to us it is close to the City only 50 minutes away over the Mountain gravel roads. If you want to travel on mostly sealed roads go through Fingal and PAST Mathinna. Check maps before you leave as NO reception out here.
It is 40 acres and we have MANY MANY free roaming animals, milking goats, ducks, chickens, cows, 3 BIG dogs. (The dogs will get out of the way of cars so just drive ahead and the dogs will move out of your way they have big barks but they are friendly) PLEASE NOTE: If you have any issues with dogs let us know in ADVANCE and we can lock them in their yard for your stay.
EVERYONE is told upon arrival to honk/toot your horn if you have any issues or need help and one of us will come and help if you let us know! Otherwise we leave people in peace to camp as they wish and where they want.
The property has a big guest house that is currently empty, this is where the flushing toilet is for you to use whilst camping if you like.
This Rustic country house is also available for hire/rent, there is hot water via a woodfire (takes up to 5 hours to heat up water $50 per wheelbarrow load of wood) with Big triangle bath and a shower for use if you book the house, (3 single beds and a few new double bed air mattresses are available for your less rugged campers who want to come but need that extra comfort or to be close to a toilet at $40 per person per night.) You are welcome to come camping anytime with a range of needs catered to. Sorry no wheelchair ramps, a single step into the house and one step into the toilet too.
Pick whatever spot you like to camp upon, by the river, the rocky island in the river, in the bush, just on the paddock grass anywhere. The big house is for you to use the toilet, kitchen sink and feel free to have a cold shower if you want. You can wander on the property connect with us and if you like you can help feed the animals. We are very happy to host people who love nature and enjoy organic farm life. There is NO wifi or mobile phone reception ZERO, so you can finally enjoy total tranquility.
(there is a landline telephone in the big house so you can make a call if you need to, it is a private number)

Recently had a nights stay at Charlys farm and couldn’t recommend it more! We camped right by the river, swam in the refreshing water and had a campfire in the already established fire pit (thank you Charly)! There were several dogs (of all shapes and sizes) that greeted us and we spent the majority of our time with their beautiful Great Dane, Shilo. Important to note, whilst the dogs bark, they were all incredibly friendly and Charly offered to put them away several times if they were a bother. The paddock was filled with free roaming horses, cows and goats who even let us pet them! We had plenty of privacy and a short walk to the flushing toilet made it a very pleasant stay. If coming from Launceston, we travelled on Roses Tier Road from Upper Blessington, onto Gunns Road and turning left onto Upper Esk Road. Whilst it was steep, windy and gravelly, we found it easy to navigate.
Thanks Charly, we’ll be back!

We loved this stay. The campsite is an absolutely beautiful place that is well protected and very private. The river is magic and the option to walk to town for a meal gave the kids something to look forward instead of another camp kitchen production! The welcome from James and Graham was terrific. An all round absolute gem that we look forward to visiting again.

From the moment we arrived, we were greeted and taken care of. The space is a mix of bushy or open with the ability to choose where best suits you to set up. We followed the hosts suggestion to camp in an open area away from a large group for more peace and quiet.
My friend and I booked two sites and had our 4 dogs with us who were able to have them off lead and they were much happier and relaxed than when they have to be secured. They also had the kids come and play with them which they absolutely loved.
We really enjoyed having the kids show us the estuary and crabs. We really felt like we were an extension of the family during our stay and would happily stay here solo.
Looking forward to staying here again soon!

This was our second stay, we changed plans on this trip upon discovering the site available. We spent two nights in the picturesque surrounds on offer, enjoying the quiet, birds & the complete absence of phone reception.
A great wide open space, we all enjoyed thoroughly doing some fishing, kids having a little splash in the creek & exploring around trying to see what animals live there.

The best camping near Bridport guide
Where to go
Launceston
Tasmania’s second-largest city is an ideal base for campers wanting to be near city attractions while still being close to nature. Within the city itself you’ll find the scenic Cataract Gorge, a popular attraction. Self-catering campers should check out the Sunday markets and local produce, as Launceston is a UNESCO City of Gastronomy. As well as city caravan parks, campers can head to campgrounds beside the River Tamar or the South Esk River.
Bay of Fires Conservation Area
On the eastern coast of north-eastern Tasmania and about two hours’ drive from Bridport is one of the state’s must-visit attractions: the red lichen-covered rocks of the Bay of Fires, especially stunning next to the clear turquoise waters and white sands. You’ll find free campsites for tents, caravans, and camper-trailers in the area, which don’t even need to be pre-booked. The northern section of this conservation area is part of the Mount William National Park, where you can camp beside the beach.
Ben Lomond National Park
About 1.5 hours’ drive south of Bridport, the mountainous Ben Lomond National Park is ideal for winter visits to the area as it’s home to one of Tasmania’s two ski fields. Drive the memorable zig-zag road of Jacob’s Ladder and stay at a small campsite in the park with unpowered sites. Free camping is permitted here further than 500 metres from any roads.
When to go
While Bridport is most popular in summer, when the weather is warm and the conditions best for beach activities, seafood lovers should consider visiting during the Tassie Scallop Fiesta, held in July. Combine this with a trip to the nearby ski field at Ben Lomond for a fun winter trip. Otherwise, the warmer months are an ideal time to visit the seaside town.
